Please understand that your dog needs training is all. A shock collar on
a toy dog is not the way to go. If your looking for an easy fix this is not
it. Some Yorkies need more training than others but unless he knows that
his constant barking is wrong he has no idea it is.
Try training using a soda can with coins in it. Stay with him and when he
barks unnecessiarly shake the can rapidly at him telling him NO BARKING.
Continue this when he barks and praise him to no end when
he stops and provide a treat for his good behavior. This must be done
immediately when he stops barking so he knows when he stops he's a good
boy. People don't understand that a dog does not want to be bad but without
being told what to do and how to do it he has no clue. It's much like raising
children. Unless they are told want to do and what not to do they would
not know what is good and what is bad. A yorkie is no different.
It takes lots of patience and believe me they are as smart as they come.
Good luck. If you have a library near you you can possibly get Ceaser Millan's
CD's there. |
